Why should your suit sit in your dresser or closet for half a year and miss out on all of the fun?

Speak volumes without even opening your mouth. Check out these 11 plus-size Instagrammers as they make a statement without saying a word.

Self-care can be a lot of things.

Every New Year people tout the idea of “New Year, New YOU!” But what if the problem isn’t you? I propose we let go of the things that no longer serve us.

Take up your space. Breathe and allow yourself to fill the spot you are sitting in rather than tensing your muscles and trying to hold your body tight.

Minimalist and androgynous fashions are chic, easy to wear… and often really inaccessible to plus-size bodies. It’s not that the clothing is not there, fat bodies are just told that we can’t have it.

Instead of spending time looking at smaller bodies that the world suggests you should be aspiring toward, why not surround yourself with images of fat people with bodies like yours — who are living their best lives and seriously having fun in their swimsuits?

It’s that time again. Everyone’s fretting about having a beach body. Plus-size summer bodies are beach bodies! All bodies should be celebrated this summer!

Before you hit the racks, pull out faves from your summer closet and treat yourself to wearing things that bring you joy.

There are tons of retro looks that resurface over the years, but one of my favorite silhouettes of all time is the off-the-shoulder look.
